'Yeah, it's like a cow's opinion. You know, it just doesn't matter. It's moo.' -- Joey

As you may have heard mentioned, Tuesday was the 10-year anniversary of the "Friends" finale. The Internet was abuzz with remembering the popular series about six companions trying to navigate their late 20s and early 30s in New York. The series ran from 1994 to 2004 on NBC.

And while "The Last One" did air on May 6, 2004, "Friends" always aired on Thursdays -- a highlight of NBC's memorable "Must See TV" run. (Of course, it wasn't really the last one because the "Friends" have remained with us in reruns.)

So what better day than today, the Thursday of the 10-year anniversary, to recall the very best of the often-imitated, never-even-close-to-duplicated series.

Let's not get stuck in second gear. Let's get right to it. Here are my favorite 10 episodes:

10. The Last One. Season 10.

Rachel gets off the plane, and Ross and Rachel wind up together. Monica and Chandler have twins, even though they "only ordered one." And the series ends with the gang deciding to go for coffee. Chandler: "Where?"

9. Thanksgiving.

No best of "Friends" list can be complete without a Thanksgiving episode. But how do you choose just one?

In season 5, the gang reminisces about their worst Thanksgivings, with Monica eventually putting a turkey on her head to cheer Chandler up. (He says "I love you" for the first time.)

In season 3, the sixsome plays a game of football that results in Monica and Ross both on the ground clutching the ball.

In season 8, Brad Pitt makes a memorable appearance, revealing that he and Ross started an "I Hate Rachel Green" club in high school.

In season 6, Ross admits to his parents that it was he who got high and not Chandler back on a visit from college.

In season 4, Chandler is in a box during dinner as punishment for kissing Joey's girlfriend.

In season 1, everybody's plans fall through, and they find solace in one another's company, even after getting locked out of the apartment.

In season 7, Joey delivers the classic line: "The big question is: Does he like you? Right? Because if he doesn't like you, this is all a moo point. ... Yeah, it's like a cow's opinion. You know, it just doesn't matter. It's moo."

The girls want in on the guys' poker game, and then there's a lot of poker playing highlighted by a Ross-Rachel feud -- Ross: "Your money's mine, Green." Rachel: "Your fly is open, Gellar." It all culminates with Ross letting Rachel win a huge pot after she's turned down for a dream job.

The best exchange comes when the gang finishes playing for the first time.

Chandler: "Rach, Rach, we gotta settle."

Rachel: "Settle what?"

Chandler: "The Jamestown colony of Virginia. You see, King George is giving us the land."

7. The One with the Prom Video. Season 2.

When Monica's parents turn her room into a gym, they bring by a couple of boxes of her old stuff. Meanwhile, Rachel tells Ross that he needs to accept that it's over between them. One of the boxes contains a video of Monica and Rachel preparing for prom.

The showing of the video is hilarious, from Monica's weight to Rachel's nose to Monica giving footnotes as the tape plays. When it's revealed that Ross was willing to rescue Rachel from her date no-showing -- the date showed at the last minute -- Rachel realizes how much Ross cares for her. She calmly walks over from the couch to the door and kisses Ross for the second time in the show's run, this time starting a relationship. (And, Phoebe intones: "He's her lobster.)

6. The One with the Free Porn. Season 4.

When Joey hits a button on the remote, pornography appears for free on Chandler and Joey's TV. That's all that really needs to be said about that part. Favorite line from Chandler to the girls: "Listen, can we watch cartoons on your television. We need a porn break." But he can't, as Rachel suggests, change the station on his TV. "Because then we'd be the guys who turned off free porn."

In nice parallels, a persistent Monica convinces Ross to go after Emily in the most romantic of ways, and Phoebe learns that she is having triplets.

In a cross-Atlantic love tale, Ross and Emily are together by the end of the episode, but it doesn't go perfectly for Ross at first: "I said, 'I love you,' and she said, 'Thank you.'"

5. The One with the Blackout. Season 1.

As Phoebe is about to play a song at Central Perk, New York city loses power. Chandler is "trapped in a ATM vestibule with Jill Goodacre" and mostly has an inner monologue going, except to tell her that, "Gum would be perfection."

The rest of the friends stay in the apartment, light candles and discuss the weirdest place they have had sex, with Rachel winning for "the foot of the bed." Joey also tells Ross that he's mayor of the "friend zone" with Rachel and he must make a move. Before Ross can, a cat jumps on him, which leads to Rachel dating an Italian guy.

Phoebe plays this song: New York city has no power / And the milk is getting sour / But to me it is not scary / Cuz I stay away from dairy.

4. The One Where Ross Finds Out. Season 2.

Let's start with the superb subplot, where Monica becomes Chandler's workout coach. There's a "Macho Man" montage, Monica shoving Chandler to the ground after a pushing/slapping match and Chandler cleverly talking Monica out of a workout because she should be sad about not having a job or a boyfriend.

Then, there's Ross and Rachel's first kiss. Rachel is on a first date and talks to him about Ross and his girlfriend, Julie, buying a cat: "Why can't they get one of those bugs, you know? One of those fruit flies, those things that live for like a day or something. (Snapping fingers.) What they are called? What are they called? What are they called?"

Rachel leaves her "closure" message on Ross' phone about how she's over him, he hears it the next day with Rachel on his back and asks, "You're over me? When ... when were you under me?"

Later at the coffee shop and alone, Ross and Rachel get in a fight, Ross storms out but comes back in the rain. Rachel has to unlock the door -- "try the bottom one" -- and they fall into a beautiful kiss.

3. The One Where No One's Ready. Season 3.

In one of the best bottle episodes in TV history, Ross tries to get everyone ready for his big event that starts at 8 p.m. The only one who is dressed early is Phoebe, but hummus gets spilled on her dress.

Monica is obsessed with a phone message from Richard, Chandler and Joey argue over whose chair it is, and Ross, who is frustrated for most of the episode, and Rachel get in a fight over Rachel picking a dress.

Joey wins the fight with Chandler by putting on all of Chandler's clothes and then mocking him: "Look at me. I'm Chandler. Could I be wearing any more clothes?"

The most thought-provoking line of the half-hour comes from Chandler: "Donald Duck never wore pants. But whenever he's getting out of the shower, he always puts a towel around his waist. I mean, what is that about?"

Everyone, though, ends up making it to the cab on time, and there's also a nice running gag about going commando.

2. The One Where Everybody Finds Out. Season 5.

When Ugly Naked Guy moves out, Phoebe, Rachel and Ross check out the apartment, and Phoebe sees Monica and Chandler fooling around. Now, Phoebe and Rachel, along with Joey, know about Monica and Chandler's relationship, but Chandler and Monica don't know that Rachel and Phoebe know. Hilarity ensues for the rest of the episode.

It's the classic they don't know that we know that they know what we know, culminating with a game of sex-chicken between Phoebe and Chandler. Why can't Chandler have sex with Phoebe? Chandler: "Because I'm in love with Monica!"

Ross bonds with Ugly Naked Guy by getting naked himself, and from that apartment, Ross finds out about Monica and Chandler at episode's end, bringing back his rage as he yells: "What? No. What are you doing? Get off my sister!!!"

1. The One with the Embryos. Season 4.

When Chandler and Joey claim to know more about Monica and Rachel than the girls do about them, the four of them gradually up the stakes, with Ross as the overexcited host of a game show. The final wager: If the girls win, the guys have to get rid of their chick and duck, but if the guys win, they get the girls' apartment.

Any "Friends" fan can remember the most gut-busting answers: "Mrs. Chanandler Bong," "Viva Las Gaygas" and "Big Fat Goalie." The girls, of course, lose when they can't name Chandler's job. Rachel: "He's a transponster!"

As the guys are moving in and everyone is bickering, Phoebe finds out that she is pregnant, and everyone celebrates. Phoebe's brother: "My sister's gonna have my baby!"

Phoebe plays this song: Are you in there little fetus? / In nine months will you come greet us? / I will buy you some ... Adidas.

And, thanks to reruns, friends are still always there for me -- when it hasn't been my day, my week, my month or even my year.
